過於從詩歌裏尋求“大意思”，就會失去些什麽....

thanks, zf!!

i find myself getting tired of all the pretentious seriousness in writing, not just others' ... myself included ....

it has to feel real and right when right writes "serious" stuff.....at least for oneself.....

poetry, like other kinds of art form, should be fun to read, writie, i think...

that was why i was attracted by Henry Miller's style of writing .... his books are full of black springs, but his sense of humor/optimism helped him deal with the dark side of humanity.....

[z.f.]

I really like the Humor here:

[z.f.]

on a tree
on a hill
lived a bird that would not sleep.

“I’m not tired,” Bird said.

“Sleep!”
“Sleep!”
“Sleep!”
“Sleep!”
“Sleep!”
“Sleep!”
“Sleep!”
“Sleep!”
“Sleep!”
“Sleep!”
“Sleep!”
...

“B-u-t I’m n-o-t t-i-r-e-d...”

(~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

one day

it woke
wet
in the sun

...

“I’m not t-i-r-e-d,” Bird said.

“Sleep!”
“Sleep!”
“Sleep!”
...

“But I’m not tired!!!”
